The Bad Ass Video Game Characters Ever

Action, every man (straight men, at least) love it, and lets face it, the adrenaline-charged males does not like characters who throw flowers all over the place. They like guys with a tremendously ripped body, a smooth predator who seemingly put enemies away without breaking a sweat, or both. The video gaming world also had its share of characters who personify the famous quote: “I came, I saw, I kicked your ass”.

The most common of these “bad ass” people are those who not only kick some serious butt, but they also do it in style. I’m talking about Dante from Devil May Cry, Alucard from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Vincent and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7, Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid, Duke Nukem, and a lot more. These guys have no trouble blowing your head off just because they can, but at the same time, trying to maintain their hair and costumes.

Some of them though, are just out there to destroy people, no questions asked. Guys like Akuma from Street Fighter, Kefka from Final Fantasy 6, Astaroth from Soul Calibur, the main character in Grand Theft Auto and Hitman games, and how can we forget the lovable plumber Mario? The moustache alone is bad ass, and he stomping on everyone is even more.

Everyone wishes they can be as bad as these characters are, but reality is if you imitate in real life what these bad seeds do on video game, chances are you’re going to jail. So until then, just idolize.
